Debabrata Panigrahi

Now: Founding engineer at Parseable, steering an open-source observability stack, Rust on the back end, a dash of React on the frontend, built for screaming-fast, S3-backed telemetry. Before: Led Developer Relations at Harness, rolling out the Internal Developer Portal to thousands of engineers and hacking on Backstage plugins to make workflows feel ✨ friction-free. I'm deeply rooted in open source, with contributions to Kubernetes, Chaos Mesh, and Backstage. Currently working on building an unified observability platform to handle high-cardinality telemetry, columnar storage, and anything that turns messy data into tidy insights. Outside the day job you’ll find me: * Prototyping healthcare apps for doctor friends and family, think chatbots for remote consults and patient-record databases. (Was among the first developers to toy with India’s NDHM sandbox back in 2021.) * Pairing my biomedical-engineering background with dev-tooling know-how to bring modern infra practices into clinics and small hospitals. Always up for a jam on observability, IDPs, Rust side-projects, or creative GTM storytelling. Let’s connect!
